Bloodfire Quest, Book Two of the Dark Legacy of Shannara trilogy, will publish on March 12, 2013!
As usual, Terry will be touring for the new book’s release, visiting several bookstores in the western US. You can see his tour by clicking HERE. If you have never been to a Terry Brooks event but he is coming within a few hours of you, make the trip and go see him. He is great fun. He usually reads from a forthcoming work not yet in print, answers questions with wit and interest, and then signs books—sometimes long into the evening.

Terry is doing something a bit different for his Seattle, WA University Bookstore Bloodfire Quest event though. He invited me to join, his Web Druid! My book, The Dark Thorn, is newly published and he took pity on me. Said I needed a proper launch party for my book. Said he wanted more than my mother, father, and an unknown beggar in the crowd. Said I’ll get better looking on stage with him. Said it would be fun.
So I will be with Terry in front of his fans at the March 14th Seattle, WA event. In a way, I guess it makes sense. Some of you have been following my web work for almost two decades now; some of you have even read The Dark Thorn.
But we didn’t stop there!
We invited Todd Lockwood to join us. Todd lives in the Seattle area as well and contributed the interior art for Wards of Faerie and Bloodfire Quest as well as the cover for The Dark Thorn and the upcoming anthology Unfettered! He will sign all three books if asked.
So those of you going to the University Bookstore event in Seattle on March 14, 2013 will have three of us there! Hopefully not boring you to tears with stories of our personal stories and greatness!
There you have it! Hope to see some of you there!

I hope lots of people come. To bad I’m on the east coast.
Yeah! Have fun everyone! 🙂
What a treat for the fans!!
Wish I could be there but I will have to wait for the Phoenix, AZ visit.
This makes me wish I lived in Seattle.
Shawn, Will The Dark Thorn be for Sale at The U Bookstore?
Yes. It already is, actually. Double-signed by myself and Todd Lockwood.
Will there be a signing at the Norwescon? Will Mr. Brooks be stopping in at JBLM (Ft. Lewis) in Tacoma this trip? Thanks!
There won’t be a stop at JBLM for this tour but there might be one for the Witch Wraith tour. More when we know it.
As far as Norwescon, oh yes. Most definitely. Terry will be signing alongside Todd Lockwood at some point, probably on that Saturday. Watch the Norwescon website for programming events.
